I use it businesswise +/- 6 months. It's a company's mobile. IMHO this smartphone is really a joke. The major problems are powerconsumption and battery lifetime, freez of application and not user friendly network management. The battery of this phone cannot handle a day with a wifi on. Not to mention the use of other application. Don't even try installing them on your unit (like naviagation software, backup software, skype, other) because this phone is going to die on you almost the minute you do... if you tend to use built-in features like GPS or WIFI or Bluetooth, be sure to switch it off immediatly after you've used them. As IT specialist in our company, I give support to my collegues using those and main issues are the ones I've...
Pluspunten
- keyboard, use of high density Sd-cards
Minpunten
- battery lifetime, audio and charger are sharing the same port; terribly long loading GPS; disconnecting the phonecall's

As to the design, it looks nice, but is really big and takes a lot of space in your pockets. The keyboard is a nice feature though and the fact that you can use high density SD cards is also a plus (you can't use those cards with IPAQ 614).
Owning this phone is like being in prison: you have to think to recharge it almost every day! think not to forget the charger... and above all... not to forget your phone with you, cause it so huge you don't want to "wear it" on you all the time.
And one more fault in design: the phone is being charged by the same entry your headset is using to produce audio... so no mp3 or handsfree calling when charging. Given the quality of the battery, and the fact that the phone has to charge almost all the time, it means no music and handsfree calling at all
So be aware.
